Hello. My name is Laura DeMougin, MS, LSW, and I am a licensed therapist in the state of Indiana. I have experience in helping individuals reach their maximum potential by treating a variety of issues that affect their mental health. These include anxiety, depression, ADHD coaching for children and adult, and post-traumatic stress disorder. I help patients of ages 6 and above through the most difficult times in their lives. I offer both in-person sessions in my office in Franklin, IN, as well as telehealth services.

I believe that in order to be happy and healthy, we must nourish the whole person. As you begin your journey towards healing, I recognize the great courage it takes to seek help. My goal is to help you discover your true potential and form healthy relationships along the way. I strongly believe that each of us holds the power to change and create the life that we desire. You may feel stuck, not know exactly where to go for help, who the best person would be to talk to, or what to expect from therapy. These are normal questions and concerns. I want to assure you...You are at the right place!

I work with artists, entrepreneurs, musicians, clergy, students, other therapists, professionals and anyone trying to carry the demands of modern life and maintain their humanity. I help clients live creatively, identifying their core values and exploring new ways of knowing themselves and their most intimate relationships. Some of my clients have come from high control relationships or religious dynamics and are working to connect with a stronger, more essential self. Some are going through life transitions that have stirred up unfelt emotions and exposed patterns of relating that no longer serve them.

As a counselor, I've come to learn and deeply believe that "healing" isn't about erasing our pain and avoiding the things that make us uncomfortable—it's learning to transform our relationship to our pain, and finding new ways to interact with this challenging, unpredictable world we're all part of. Whether it's navigating burnout and overwhelm, trying to move forward from trauma, or learning how to love and be loved more deeply, I believe we're all just trying to do our best with what we've got, and that the right set of helping hands at just the right time can make a whole world of difference.

I have been working with Adults, Adolescents, Couples and Families for 20 years. I work with my clients to address any issues associated with depression, anxiety, bi-polar, personality disorders, trauma and addiction. I enjoy helping my patients identify the core issues that they want to address and develop skills and tools to help them successfully navigate through them for the rest of their life.

The word psychotherapist is greek and means "Healer of the Soul". When you come into my office, I will not label you with anxiety, depression, addiction or any other disorder. You will hear me ask questions like: How is your addiction protecting you from pain? What do you not feel when depression numbs you? Once you witness and heal the wounds of your soul (you can also call it trauma), the symptoms (the 'disorder') can disappear. If you are interested in having a deeper understanding and awareness of your emotions, I will help you to develop a relationship with yourself that is characterized by curiosity, respect and compassion.

You are worthy of peace and joy! If you are tired of feeling stuck, distracted, or minimizing yourself and thinking of all the things you should be doing or unsure where to start....stop "should-ing" on yourself! Depression, grief, anger and anxiety are normal human emotions. However, with most things in life, it’s all about balance and moderation. Sometimes things from the past, fears of the future's uncertainty or the way we are wired creates patterns that interfere with living a more meaningful, joyful, and peaceful life- one that includes connecting with the healing powers already within you!

You want to appear successful & like you have it “all together” but deep down are struggling to feel confident in who you are or cope with challenging experiences that have occurred in your life. Are you a woman whose life looks “good” from the outside, and yet it still feels like something is missing? You’ve accomplished a lot in life, but don’t feel the sense of fulfillment you expected. A big life change—maybe a breakup, new job, new marriage, change in family dynamic, or move—has highlighted the fact that you’re still not as happy or content as you want to be. Something is telling you that you need to make a shift.

My ideal client is someone who is on a journey of self-discovery, seeking to understand themselves more deeply, heal from past traumas, and pursue their personal goals with authenticity and resilience. You may be wrestling with the weight of past experiences, grappling with identity, or feeling overwhelmed by the impact of societal pressures on your daily life. My goal is to create a space that feels safe enough for you to express yourself fully, receive pushback, and wrestle with complex emotions.

If you overthink things, worry excessively, get easily overwhelmed, and struggle to relax, I understand what you are going through. The racing thoughts, shakiness, pounding heart, upset stomach, & sleepless nights can make it difficult to function. You want peace, but feeling calm can be a challenge because the anxiety makes you feel like you are losing control. Your quest for relief has possibly resulted in unhealthy behaviors & you long to find better ways to cope. Evidenced-based therapies can help, and I would love to show you how.

My clients are often struggling with excessive stress, or anxiety and depression, and can be triggered by past traumas. Many are experiencing oppression, discrimination, prejudice, or stigma. They want a better quality of life, for themselves and for their children or loved ones. My clients are often looking for inner peace and happiness to fully enjoy themselves and to enjoy interacting with others in situations or environments, such as work, school and home. It’s finding resilience, for example through newly learned skills and insights, or a spiritual journey of meditation/prayer, as examples, that allow a better quality of life.

Feeling the weight of the past holding you back? Looking for new and more helpful ways to heal and move forward? Wanting to lean into the healthiest version of yourself? Though it is not talked about enough, these types of challenges are not uncommon in this human experience and we all struggle, at points in our lives, with how we react and respond to different situations because of our experiences we've had that affect our thoughts, feelings and emotions. I believe that you are capable of breaking away from what no longer serves you and finding your way towards a more intentional and fulfilling life.

Wishing your relationship would improve? Feeling disconnected from your spouse/partner(s)? Does your relationship feel unsatisfying sexually or emotionally? Having frequent conflicts or fights? Do you wish your partner could meet your physical or emotional needs and desires? Want help overcoming jealousy, insecurity, or sexual shame/guilt? Struggling to overcome an affair? Looking for help with non-monogamy, kinks/fetishes, or LGBTQ+ issues? Navigating solutions to these issues can feel overwhelming and difficult. Rest assured that you can have a stronger, more connected, sexually fulfilling life and relationship with Sex Therapy.

Living with anxiety is overwhelming! You're probably noticing how it affects everything from work, school, relationships, and even sleep! Many that struggle need relief but don't know how to find it. Maybe it has taken over and you can't remember what it is like to feel at peace with yourself. Maybe that sounds impossible. It might be hard to make sense of what is happening and why you feel the way you do. You are feeling that way for a reason! When we don’t make sense to ourselves things can feel hopeless. You don’t have to live with feeling overwhelmed forever. We can make sense of your anxiety together.

The story of our lives often shape our day to day experiences. As we open up to our story and how we ended up at a certain space in our lives, we begin to see patterns. We begin to see unhealthy ways we have responded to people, relationships that have been less than productive, or events that unfolded different than we had hoped. In order to grow and set a new course, we need to identify the patterns that have lead us here. Therapy is about doing just that - uncovering underlying, most the time subconscious, ways of thinking, so that we can become the people that we want to be.

Accepting new clients 3/4/24. If we don't have relationships in this life, then what do we have? Relationships: that's what it is all about. When life is full of stress, arguments, chaos, pain, and hurt, our relationships struggle. We then feel very bad about ourselves and are often miserable! I can help guide you back to those quality relationships you used to have. Imagine a life filled with much more relaxation and happiness.
